March Mammal Madness Vocabulary Practice Test

The main idea is identifying the term for an animal that hunts other animals for food. That term is predator. In ecosystems, predators are the hunters that feed on other animals, while the animals they hunt are called prey. Plants are producers that make their own food, not hunters, and fungi are decomposers that break down dead material rather than actively chasing live animals. So, the animal described as hunting other animals for food fits the role of a predator, which is why this is the best answer.
